Always plead not guilty. If you plead guilty you are asking for points/higher fines. Never do that. You will receive a summons to traffic court and your driving abstract will be reviewed.
Even if you don't have a good reason, it might be wise to fight a speeding ticket if it could cause you serious legal problems. Speeding tickets can require your presence in court, cause you to lose your license, or violate probation.
It can be a stressful situation, especially since it can add points to your license, increase your insurance, and those are both on top of the fine you'll be paying. There is a lot of debate over whether you should plead guilty or not guilty, but the answer should always be to plead 'not guilty' for a speeding ticket.
Negotiate a Plea Bargain: In some cases, it may be possible to negotiate a plea bargain with the prosecution. This could involve pleading guilty to a lesser offense in exchange for reduced penalties, such as lower fines or fewer points on your driving record.
Common Defenses Against Speeding Tickets Inaccurate Estimation of Speed by the Officer. Questioning the Officer's Vantage Point and Conditions During the Incident. Radar and Lidar Inaccuracies. Calibration and Maintenance Records of the Device. Operator Error or Improper Use of the Device. Driving to Avoid Harm or Danger.
You can also plead not guilty by appearing in person in Court on the court date specified on your ticket. You can request a Supporting Deposition by checking the appropriate box on the ticket. (A Supporting Deposition will provide you with additional information regarding the basis for the ticket).
